Lost In Woods

Summary:

The little girl screamed with the lightning and continued running in the dark forest. She could hear the dogs barking behind her. She had no energy to run any further because of the branches cutting her feet and the rain, but she wasn't going to give up. She started to run faster but stopped herself when she saw the cliff in front of her “Jaiden!” She looked back at the voice she heard, the light of the flashlight stopped on her face, she was looking at the man calling out to her in horror “We caught everyone. They are not real! You have nowhere left to run." Jaiden looked back “Jaiden! Come here!" Jaiden took a step back in fear as the man approached her “JAIDEN!” Jaiden stopped “I wanted to help! I wasn't trying to escape! I swear! I was telling them not to run!” When Jaiden cried out, Cucurucho shook his head “I'll approach you slowly, okay? I promise I won't do anything you don't want. I believe you." Jaiden looked at her friends who came after her and were caught “O-Okay.” She said and started to approach Cucurucho. When the lightning struck again, Jaiden trembled with fear and slipped. She started to fall backwards while looking at Cucurucho in despair "JAIDEN!"

Chapter Text

Today was a beautiful day. Children were running around the building and not going to the prohibited places. Jaiden, the quietest child among them, was sitting under the shade of a tree and reading the book in her hand.

The Beauties Of The World

She was thinking about the difference between the world she saw and the world described. When she looked at the sky, she was wondering about the clouds. Foolish told her the clouds were cotton candy, but Cellbit said he was lying. She looked at her friends playing games in the distance, then looked at Cellbit sitting in the corner of the other tree. "Why don't you play games with them?" Cellbit looked at her in surprise when she asked “Jaiden! You surprised me." Jaiden paused “Why? Didn't you see that I was here? Cellbit laughed “No, it's not like that. I thought you would just ignore me. Anyway, how are you?” Jaiden closed her book “I'm fine, how are you? What are you holding?” Cellbit looked around “Look.” Cellbit secretly showed the picture in his hand and said, “This girl suddenly disappeared. It is said that she is from our facility. She escaped. Her name is Bagi.” Jaiden looked at the girl. “Did she run away? How?" Cellbit shrugged "I don't know. Someone sent me this, but I don't know who sent it," he whispered. Jaiden stepped back “Woah maybe you should be careful. You may be being tested.” Cellbit stopped and slowly looked at the photo “You are right.” He said and stood up “See you Jaiden! I got an idea!" Jaiden looked behind him, then opened her book again, took a deep breath and continued reading her book, but she started to have thoughts that confused her mind.

Had someone managed to enter the forbidden forest?

“You must be very tired today!” While Walter Bob was talking to everyone, the children were all happily nodding their heads. "I ruined your game because it was medicine time." Pac laughs “No problem! Do you want to play games with us?” Walter nodded “Of course! Maybe Hide and Seek?" While all the children were shouting with joy, Jaiden was watching them silently “Walter-“ Walter ignored the employee who called out to him and after giving everyone their medicine, he ran out to the garden with the children “Jaiden? Why are you still here?" Jaiden looked at Fred. “Oh… Can I ask something?” Fred nodded “Of course! What's the problem?" Jaiden looked around “Are clouds made of cotton candy?” Fred stopped and started laughing “Who told you that?” Jaiden frowned when he said "Foolish?" Fred giggled when she said “Jaiden! Clouds are not cotton candy. Foolish must have lied to you.” Jaiden stopped “Oh…” she said and looked around “I see. Can I go to my room?” Fred was surprised at Jaiden's reaction "Oh, aren't you going to play with your friends?" Jaiden shook her head in the negative. “I want to read my book.” Fred nodded and  took Jaidens hand "Let's go." As he said that, Jaiden saw Cucurucho. He had his white hair tied up today and was reading the book in his hand carefully "Cucurucho!" She quickly released Fred's hand and ran to Cucurucho "How are you today?" While looking at Cucurucho with admiration, Cucurucho smiled and said, “Blue Bird. Why are you here?" Jaiden raised her hand “Fred was taking me to my room!” Cucurucho stopped and looked around “Fred? Who is Fred?" Jaiden looked back but couldn't see Fred "Fred is someone who works here." She was continuing to look around while saying Cucurucho put his hand on Jaiden's head "What was Fred like?" Jaiden looked at him with a smile. “He was dressed in blue. Fred was with Bob.” Cucurucho frowned “Walter Bob? Where is he?" Jaiden pointed outside. “He's playing hide and seek in the garden with the kids.” Cucurucho closed his eyes “Well thank you Blue Bird. Can you go to your room alone? I left you new books. I'm sure you'll be happy to read it.” While Jaiden was quickly running to her room, Cucurucho was slowly walking to the garden. He took out his gold pocket watch and was looked it carefully. Jaiden was wondering what Cucurucho would do, so she stopped running and turned back to follow him. Cucurucho closed his pocket watch and walked over to Walter Bob. Walter Bob quickly gave the command to get ready and was looking at Cucurucho. The kids were all hiding so no one saw Walter Bob. Except for one person, Cellbit. Jaiden and Cellbit locked eyes. Jaiden waved at Cellbit, but Cellbit turned his head away. 

Today was a boring day. Jaiden didn't feel happy anymore. She felt like she had made a bad mistake. Walter Bob did not come to give the evening meds. There was another man tonight. She felt like her friends were looking at her badly. No one sat next to her except Foolish. “People think you're snitched Walter Bob.” Jaiden was surprised. “But I didn't.” When she said that, Foolish shook his head. “I know, but they don't know.” When Jaiden looked in the direction he was pointing, no one was looking at them "Why?" Foolish smiled “I don't know. They were upset with me for putting them in jail while we were playing cops and robbers." Jaiden smiled “I would help you.” Foolish chuckled. “I know.” When he said that, they both laughed and continued eating their meals.

Jaiden couldn't sleep tonight. The dead silence in her room disturbed her. She went to the window and started to look outside, but what she expected to see was trees, but all she saw outside was the light filtering through the trees. She frowned and left her room maybe Cucurucho was outside and needed help. The light was still in the dark forest when Jaiden emerged into the cold garden. She was torn between whether to go or not and looked back. Maybe she should have informed someone, but what if it was too late? Running was the best idea so she started running towards the light but the person she saw was not Cucurucho “Cellbit and... Bagi?” While the two children looked at her in shock, the burning candle light went out with the wind and the three were left alone in the dark forest.

Chapter 2

Chapter Text

All three of them stopped looking at each other when they heard the sound of a wolf in the forest. Jaiden grabbed Cellbit's arm "What are you doing here?!" When she asked with concern, Cellbit got angry at her and said, "What are YOU actually doing here?! Did something happen? Why are you outside?” While the two were whispering and getting angry at each other, Bagi was slowly walking back “Hey! Stay where you are! Aren't you the lost girl? I thought you ran away! How are you still here?” When Jaiden grabbed Bagi, Bagi quickly backed away “I don't think I'll give you an explanation. I am going. Cellbit, I will wait to hear from you.” Jaiden stared at Cellbit as Bagi disappeared into the forbidden forest. Cellbit took a deep breath “Bagi is the only one who can help us get out of here. Their connections are huge.” Jaiden felt disappointed “You want to get out of here?” she whispered “Of course I want to get out of here, Jaiden! I want to see the world! I want to see the ocean.” Jaiden looked into his eyes but didn't say anything “Don't you want to see it too? Aren't you curious about space? Don't you want to see the stars?” Cellbit pointed to the stars shining in the sky and looked at Jaiden "Can I do this?" Cellbit smiled “If we get out of here, you can.” Jaiden was still unsure “What about the others? Foolish and Roier?” Cellbit shook his head “I'll talk to everyone. Bagi is a member of the secret society. They will help us.” Jaiden looked at where Bagi ran away “How do you trust her so much? It could be from the barbarians. You know why the forbidden forest is forbidden.” Cellbit rolled his eyes. “It's all just lies to scare us, Jaiden.” What should Jaiden say now? Cellbit took her hand and smiled, "You're cold, let's go inside." While walking with Cellbit, she kept her head down and thought. This was a really beautiful place. No one had harmed them, and there were dangerous things in the forest. 

By morning, Jaiden hadn't left her room. She had a fever. Her door opened and Cucurucho walked in “Are you okay? You had me worried.” Jaiden didn't answer. Yesterday, even entering the entrance of the Forbidden Forest was against the rules, but Jaiden had entered and felt guilty. “I'm sorry.” Cucurucho smiled “I know.” Jaiden stopped when he said, "You know?" When asked, he shook his head. “Of course I know. Do you know how worried I am?” Jaiden nodded “Blue Bird, you know there are dangerous creatures in the forest. People who enter the forbidden forest cannot be the same as before. That's why we call it the forbidden forest.” Jaiden coughed “What's in the forbidden forest?” Cucurucho took a deep breath “Shapeshifters.” Jaiden didn't understand "Shapeshifters?" Cucurucho shook his head “They resemble humans and even copy them. You have to look at their eyes to distinguish them. They usually have green eyes and wear long clothes even in the hottest weather. To hide the virus.” Jaiden tried to get up “Why didn't you say that before? Yesterday's girl-" Jaiden stopped and Cucurucho frowned "Yesterday's girl?" She couldn't snitch out Cellbit, but what if he was in danger? She looked at Cucurucho and said, “There was a girl in the forest yesterday. I don't remember her eye color, but she was a strange girl." Cucurucho looked out the window “Thank you for telling me, Blue Bird. I'll take care of it." Cucurucho continued feeding the soup to Jaiden “I let Walter Bob. He will continue to play with children. I'm sorry they treated you badly yesterday." Jaiden smiled “No problem!”

Since Jaiden was feeling better, she went out into the garden and sat in the shade of the tree “I'm glad you're okay, Jaiden!” Baghera came over and sat next to Jaiden “I was worried about you!” As Baghera and Jaiden chatted, Jaiden frowned and looked towards the forbidden forest. Someone was watching her. She could feel it. She stood up and slowly started walking there "Jaiden?" Baghera was following her, she didn't know what suddenly happened to Jaiden "Jaiden?" She called out again, but Jaiden didn't hear her. When Jaiden reached the entrance of the forest, Baghera nervously grabbed her arm "Jaiden, you know this is forbidden." Jaiden took a step back “There's someone there.” When Baghera looked towards the forest, she saw Cellbit lying on the ground. “Oh my god! Cellbit! WALTER BOB!” While Jaiden was quickly running into the forest, Baghera was calling Walter Bob "Cellbit!" Cellbit's veins turned bright green and the green-black poison that had traveled up his neck was slowly moving towards his eyes "Jaiden, back off!" Cucurucho quickly picked up Jaiden and pulled her away from Cellbit. “What happened here!” Cucurucho was shouting with concern and anger, shouting with orders, “Kill every Code you saw! Walter take Cellbit to the lab! You two go there too!” Baghera and Jaiden shook their heads in fear and began to follow Walter.

It was their first time here. “I'm sorry, this is going to hurt a little.” The girls cried out in pain as Walter Bob took their blood with a needle, “I'm sorry. What happened there?" Jaiden was watching Cellbit when Baghera started explaining. Cellbit looked like he was in a lot of pain “Don't be afraid, we have an antidote.” Jaiden turned to Walter “What were those? How did they manage to deceive Cellbit?” Walter took a deep breath, “They are Shapeshifters but we call them Viruses Code. Because they different. The world is a different place now. It's not like the books you read. I don't know how they got in here, but it's too late now. As soon as Cellbit wakes up, they will come to destroy the forest.” Baghera frowned. "Who will come?" Walter didn't look at them when she asked "The Federation."

Notes:

Did you like the episode? I have a great story in mind. I hope I can reflect it here.

Chapter Text

Jaiden was taking Cellbit's favorite books with her to go to Cellbit. Meanwhile, she looked towards the glass at the sound coming from her window. It was raining, but she was frowning at the person she saw. Cellbit was running towards the forbidden forest, accompanied by Roier and Foolish “Are they running away? But the forbidden forest is very dangerous and how Cellbit awake? What is happening?” She muttered and ran out of the room trying to catch up with them. She had to get them out of there. What if Cellbit gets injured again! And why didn't Roier say he woke up? Why were they so insistent on escaping? How did Foolish join them?! She had too much to think about. When she got to the front door she slowed down when she realized it was already open. She looked around but there was no one. When she saw Fred, she was relieved and ran to him “Fred! Has Cellbit woken up?” Fred smiled at her “Yes! Didn't you have any news? Everyone went to look at him.” Jaiden opened her eyes wide “Fred you have to tell everyone! Cellbit Foolish and Roier went to the forbidden forest! We must help them!” Fred looked at Jaiden with concern “Oh my god! You should follow them, Jaiden! You must find them and bring them to us before they get too far!” Jaiden stopped “M-Me?” Fred shook his head and looked back his eyes open wide, but quickly turned back to Jaiden “Run! I'm going to inform the others! Hurry up!" Not knowing what to do, Jaiden started running, ignoring the pouring rain. When she looked back, Fred was waving at her and had locked the doors. Even if Jaiden wanted to go back, she wouldn't be able to get in. She frowned and looked towards the forest. Something was very wrong.

Fred looked at the blood flowing on the white quartz. "I must hurry." He muttered and started running before the other employees saw the bodies. His work here was done. They had lost Cellbit, but their new bait was ready.

Roier looked at Cellbit's sleeping face and continued reading the storybook in his hand. When he heard the sound of lightning, he looked up, the lights flickered and Roier frowned. It was quite late and Jaiden had to come. They agreed that they would protect Cellbit by standing guard. Rain's voice could be heard throughout the laboratory. He stood up and decided to go to Cucurucho's room. Because the closest room was his room. He knocked softly on the door. Cucurucho, who did not leave the room for a week, was putting a lot of pressure on himself. He was trying to cure Cellbit and find those who did this to him and was showing his efforts to everyone "Cucurucho?" When he opened the door, he looked at the tired man with his white hair disheveled and said, “Roier! I'm glad you came. Are you okay? Is Cellbit good?” Roier smiled “Everyone is fine, don't worry. Do you know where Jaiden is? It's her turn, but she's still not around. I'm a little worried.” Cucurucho frowned “Has she not arrived yet?” Roier nodded “Yes. Not arrived yet." Cucurucho shook his head and stood up, "Okay, don't leave Cellbit's side. I'm sending Walter Bob to you. If something happens-" Cucurucho looked around and handed his gun to Roier "Use this. Don't be afraid. Just like I taught you when you were little, okay?” Roier shook his head and followed Cucurucho running out of the room. When Walter Bob came to him, a long time had passed and Walter Bob could not reach the friends he talked to on the radio. While Roier looked at Walter Bob with concern, Walter called into the radio again, “WAO 87, can you hear me?” When there was no sound, Walter Bob looked around with nervously “Roier, wait here and don't open the door to anyone but me. Something is wrong.” Walter Bob swiped his card and as the automatic door opened, Walter Bob changed the code "Code: It's your birthday." Walter Bob walk away as Roier shook his head "Cellbit, what's going on?" Roier nervously held Cellbit's hand as he whispered, "You need to wake up." The virus in Cellbit's neck was slowly disappearing, but no one knew when it would disappear completely.

When Jaiden entered the forest, she found herself shivering with cold. She couldn't do it alone, but she saw Fred lock the doors "Cellbit! Roier! Foolish!” She covered her ears with the sound of lightning as she shouted. Jaiden hated loud noises and that thunderous sound was enough to scare her “GUYS?!” When Cellbit suddenly appeared in front of her she screamed again “Jaiden! You came! Great! We were waiting for you too! We can't go back now! Cucurucho is coming to kill us!” Jaiden, who was soaked from the rain, did not understand Cellbit's words "What? Cucurucho wouldn't do such a thing! Are you okay? Why are you outside! You are still sick!” Cellbit squeezed her arms "Have you forgotten?" He asked, looking crazy “Rule 1: If you try to escape from the Federation, you die. Rule 2: If you disobey Cucurucho, you will be punished. Rule 3: You must not harm anything belonging to the Federation.” The rain got faster as Jaiden shivered “I didn't do any of this! I came to save you!” Cellbit showed with his hand “Look, they are coming for you! They're going to kill Fred." He moved out of Jaiden's way, held her head, show her. She saw Cucurucho killing Fred "You're lying." Cellbit laughed as she said, “They are coming here. Run!" As Cellbit Foolish and Roier ran away, Jaiden looked at Cucurucho in fear "JAIDEN!" Cucurucho, who were running with the dogs, Jaiden also started running into the forest. Her shoes came off her feet while she was running. Jaiden screamed with the lightning and continued running in the dark forest. She could hear the dogs barking behind her. She had no energy to run any further because of the branches cutting her feet and the rain, but she wasn't going to give up. She started to run faster but stopped herself when she saw the cliff in front of her “Jaiden!” She looked back at the voice she heard, the light of the flashlight stopped on her face, she was looking at the man calling out to her in horror “We caught everyone. They are not real! You have nowhere left to run. Jaiden what happened! Tell me." Jaiden looked back “Jaiden! Come here!" Jaiden took a step back in fear as the man approached her “JAIDEN!” Jaiden stopped “I wanted to help! I wasn't trying to escape! I swear! I was telling them not to run!” When Jaiden cried out, Cucurucho shook his head “I know! Jaiden I know! I'll approach you slowly, okay? I promise I won't hurt you. You know me! I believe you." Jaiden looked at her friends who came after her and were caught their eyes glow green and she remembered green means “T-They Oh my god… O-Okay.” She said and started to approach Cucurucho. When the lightning struck again, Jaiden trembled with fear and slipped. She started to fall backwards while looking at Cucurucho in despair "JAIDEN!" Jaiden closed her eyes. Meanwhile, when she felt arms hugging her, she opened het eyes and saw Cucurucho "Everything will be okay." Jaiden couldn't keep her eyes open any longer and fainted from the pain she felt when they fell to the ground, but knowing that Cucurucho was hugging her and being with her at least comforted her.

They were going to die.

Chapter Text

Jaiden woke up coughing in pain. She didn't know where she was, when she tried to get up from the ground, someone stopped her "Blue Bird, lie back down. You still haven't fully recovered." Jaiden looked at the man in front of her in surprise. His arm was wrapped in his own white (now mud, not white) jacket and he was covered in blood, his white hair messed up “What happened?” Jaiden noticed when Cucurucho looked at her with a smile. His mask was broken, now she could see whether he was really laughing or not, but seeing him like this hurt Jaiden more "Everything happened because of me." The fire flared up as the little girl started crying “Jaiden, nothing was your fault. They deceived you.” Cucurucho came to Jaiden and put his hand on her forehead “Don't cry anymore. You still have a fever. We have been in this cave for 4 days and the rain still hasn't stopped. There is not enough medicine, and your body is showing reactions such as tremors because you have not taken the medicine we have been giving you since childhood." Jaiden forced herself not to cry “They're looking for us, aren't they?” Cucurucho nodded, "Of course." But that was just a little lie told to reassure Jaiden. The Federation had already replaced him.

While Cellbit was eating the food in front of him, thanks to Roier and Foolish, Walter Bob's angry voice was heard “MR Duck! This is impossible! My boss is still out there and you've already replaced him with this clown?! Huh?! I take my orders from Cucurucho, not from you!” Cellbit woke up 2 days ago and heard exactly what was happening directly from Walter Bob. Of course he blamed himself, but now he had to be smart and strong and find Cucurucho and Jaiden. Cellbit stood back as Roier handed him the soup "That's enough." While he mumbled, Foolish stood up and said, "Good then." He mumbled and was about to leave the room when Cellbit shouted after him, "Foolish, I'm sorry!" Foolish stopped “It's all my fault, I know. I just wanted to get out of here and see the world! It was a childish request.” Foolish closed his eyes and took a deep breath and looked at Cellbit “It's a childish desire because you're a child, Cellbit. You're not a 50 year old man so stop acting like one. You've been planning to get out of here since we were little, but if you react like this to the favors done to you, you and those around you will end up hurt. Jaiden thought she knew you well enough to think you ran away as soon as you woke up, because you actually tried to run away as soon as you woke up! I don't trust anyone but Jaiden and Cucurucho, Cellbit, and I've lost them." When Foolish left the room, Roier exhaled angrily “I'll talk to him.” Cellbit held him back “No. He's right Roier. I trusted Jaiden too, but I let her down. I didn't allow anyone else's options other than my own. If we were a team, decisions should not be made only by the leader, otherwise we would not be in this situation.” Roier gulped, “Cellbit, yes, you are wrong, but don't be so hard on yourself.” Cellbit smiled “Okay.” When he said this, Roier smiled and said, "Be a murderer or an angel if you want. You can be a devil or a police officer if you want. I will always stay by your side no matter what you are. No matter who you are.” While Cellbit was stunned by Roier's words, Roier got up and left the room “Fucking Fred,” Walter Bob muttered angrily when walked in “Fred? Oh right! You didn't tell me why Cucurucho killed Fred." Walter Bob looked at him “Fred didn't work for the federation. We never know how he got in, but Fred was a professional liar. He had everything planned that night. He killed 5 Federation employees responsible for gate security and tricked Jaiden. Then he locked the doors in case Jaiden wanted to return. When Cucurucho went to Jaiden's room, he saw that the bag she had prepared for you was on the floor, and as soon as he looked out the window, he saw Jaiden entering the forest. Then, when he saw the Viruses imitating you, he wanted to go to the forest with the hellhounds and encountered me at this time. After quickly explaining to me what happend, we tried the open the in front door, but it was locked. The dogs went crazy because they started smelling blood, and when we looked behind the desk, we saw the corpses of our employees. The doors were locked and Fred suddenly appeared in front of us, covered in blood. Cucurucho told me to open the locks and shot Fred directly in the head, but this was the viruses' plan. When Jaiden saw Cucurucho kill the innocent Fred, he got scared and started running away, you know what happened next." Cellbit felt a headache. “It's all my fault. If Bagi-" Walter Bob stopped him "Bagi? Do you know her?" he asked in shock Cellbit nodded "Yes, Bagi reached out to me and said she would help me escape." Walter Bob shouted in surprise “Is Bagi alive?!” Cellbit frowned "Probably the Virus-" Walter Bob stood up "No no she's probably alive because Viruses can't affect them!" Cellbit didn't understand what was going on "Them? Who? What's going on?" When he asked, Walter started laughing with a French accent coming from his radio

Does this thing work? Oh my god! Yes it works! Oh thank you Phil you are my hero Whatever. You finally noticed us.

Walter Bob turned on the radio

“Etoiles! You crazy monster! So you are still alive!”

Did you think you'd get rid of us that fast, Bob?! Of course we are alive. We are in the forests. We never ran away. We fought. We're getting there. We have things to talk about with Mr Duck.

When the radio went off, Cellbit looked at him “Who are they?” Walter smiled, “The originals who managed to escape from here. It's been almost 12 years. That is, when you guys are arrived. Etoiles Phil and Fit are bigger than you. They are the same age as us, but others may be the same age as you because they never grow up.” Walter took a deep breath as Cellbit tried to understand. "The meds you are given are to slow your growth and make you stronger." Cellbit paused. “So, like child soldiers?” Walter stopped laughing when he asked, "This is confidential information." When he left the room, Cellbit was lost in his thoughts.

He couldn't tell if they were good or bad. Who were these viruses and the Federation?

Chapter Text

When Jaiden opened her eyes, she saw that they were in tall trees. The sound of the birds and the flutter of their wings were echoing she was on Cucurucho's back "Good morning." Jaiden spoke with concern as Cucurucho spoke in a tired voice “Why didn't you wake me up?!” While feeling guilty for being a burden to Cucurucho, Cucurucho did not answer and dropped slowly Jaiden to the ground "Why-" When Jaiden looked at Cucurucho, she saw that more blood was smeared on his mud-colored clothes. When she looked at Cucurucho with horror, she realized that the tired man had not slept at all "What happened?" she whispered "The owner of the cave has arrived," Said Cucurucho then smiled “Don't worry, I took care of it. How's your fever?" Jaiden closed her eyes with the hand placed on her forehead “I feel better.” Then her voice trembled "Why haven't they come to save us yet?" Cucurucho did not answer and withdrew his hand “Jaiden, I will be frank with you. This forest is like a maze. What goes in cannot come out, and the cliff we fell from was really high. I tried everything to help you live." Cucurucho sat down tiredly next to a tree “We have no food. We have no water and they probably won't come to save us.” Jaiden's head lay on Cucurucho's stomach with the pain she felt in her ribs and the things she heard, "I'm sorry. I don't understand first then I thought about it and felt like I was being deceived, but I couldn't risk it. I couldn't let them escape. They could have been in our shoes.” Cucurucho started to braid Jaiden's hair “I know, Blue Bird. I know. We must now continue to move.” Cucurucho moved to get up, but Jaiden was still lying on his stomach “Blue Bird?” He touched Jaiden's shoulder, but the girl didn't respond "JAIDEN?!" While Jaiden fainted where she was due to the suddenly rising fever, Cucurucho took her in his arms and started to carry Jaiden, regardless of the pain he suffered, even though his arm was broken "They must be here." He whispered, looked at the broken watch he carried in his trouser pocket and pressed the button on the edge. The Clock opened up and continued walking north. He breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the sound of crows. As the crow sounds got closer and closer, he stopped with the crow standing in front of him, and Cucurucho smiled tiredly as the crow began to guide him.

While waiting in front of the door, Cellbit looked in surprise at the man whose right eye was completely white and looked as if he had a virus. The black and green veins running from his right arm up to his eye and his old wounds really made him look like a monster “Etoiles!” While Walter Bob was looking at Etoiles with excitement, Etoiles was looking at Mr. Duck, Etoiles was standing tall and fearless in front of him "It's been a long time, sir." Mr. Duck shook his head arrogantly and did not answer “What is it that you want to talk to me about? You're scaring the kids." Etoiles looked at Cellbit "I don't think you're scared of me, but where are the other kids?" Cellbit quickly replied, “They are banned from leaving their rooms. They can't go out." Etoiles frowned and held out his hand "Huh. This is very familiar. Aren't we going to go in?" Mr Duck looked at his hand in disgust and said, "Let's move on. Are you alone? Where are the others?” Etoiles laughed at Mr Duck's questions “You don't need to know where the others are. Who's this? New Cucurucho?” The man with white short hair looked at him "My name is Osito!" Etoiles suddenly froze with the man hugging him “I love hugs! I love children!" Mr Duck slapped his own face with his hand and took a deep breath "He's just learning." Etoiles smiled and said, “I understand. It's a shame you lost your favorite toy in the forest." Cellbit frowned and stopped as he looked around. He had one time seen a crow here, but this was the first time he had seen more than one, and they were all watching Etoiles carefully. It was as if they were waiting to protect, not to attack “You were successful. How is your strength?" Mr Duck also noticed the crows watching them “Our power is great. Well thank you." Cellbit really liked French accent. “Cellbit, you can't listen to anything after this. Get out." Cellbit shook his head and went out, and one of the crows began to pull him away. As he was pulling towards the garden, he heard his friends' voices "AAAAAA! Hijo de puta madre!” The crow that attacked Roier brought him to Cellbit. When he looked around, Foolish was also running away from the crows that attacked him "Are you okay?" Cellbir went to Roier and looked at him to see if he was injured “I'm fine. What's up with these crows? I saw them coming from the forest and suddenly they came in through the window and started attacking me!” When Roier kicked the crow, the other crows started attacking him again “I don't know what this is, but are we supposed to follow them? And towards the forest?!” Cellbit looked at Foolish and said, "How do you know that-" When he looked at the sky, he saw the crows making arrow signs he started to laughed excitedly "Wait! Are we going to leave without taking any weapons with us?" When Roier stopped them, Cellbit spoke “Weapons? We don't have any weapons." Roier smiled “I have it,” He said and started running. While the noon heat was already getting worse, Walter Bob was watching them anxiously from behind the glass “Cellbit has just recovered. Does it have to be him? Phil could come himself.” Etoiles tapped him on the shoulder “Phil is taking care of the others. Don't worry." The two of them looked at the unconscious Mr Duck "Let's get started now." He had to be quick to find the file related to Code Viruses.

Cucurucho couldn't stay awake any longer, but he had to make it for Jaiden. When the crow stopped, Cucurucho fell on his legs “Is he dead?” He raised his head when he heard the voice and saw them "Save Blue Bird first." Phil put his hand on Cucurucho's shoulder and said, "Don't worry. You are safe now. Fit help him. Tina, help this little girl with me." Cucurucho closed his eyes and fell forward “Phil, what about this guy?” Even though Phil hated it, he saw that Cucurucho had a heart. He had been watching him for a long time "Tubbo, do your best to make him live." Tubbo shook his head and tried to lift Cucurucho off the ground.

Chapter Text

When Jaiden woke up, she went under the covers in fear with what she saw. A black-winged animal was standing on her stomach. Its voice, unlike any bird chirping, frightened her even more. Gathering her courage, she slowly got out from under the covers and looked at the animal. The animal was watching her. When she extended her hand, the animal bowed its head and walked towards her. When the door suddenly opened, the animal flew away. Jaiden looked at the person entering the door in surprise "You're awake!" The blonde man was looking at her with a smile. He had tattered black wings behind him, but it still looked scary. It was scarier than Cucurucho "Hello," Jaiden whispered "Hello!" As the man was about to enter, he looked at the three children running in "You're awake! Finally!" She looked at the boy who was smiling at her as the two girls hugged her "Umm who are you?" Jaiden said and the girls stood back “Oh we're sorry! I'm Tina! This is Mouse! We worked hard to heal you!” While Jaiden was about to answer, the animal that landed on her stomach, started shouting “Woah! Alex seems to like you. He is a crow. Have you ever seen a crow?” Jaiden shook her head negatively. “This is the first time I've seen it.” She muttered and petted the crow's head, but she opened her eyes wide as the name came to her mind "Cucurucho! Where is he?! Is he okay?" As she tried to get out of bed, Tina held her back “Don't worry. He is sleeping now. His condition was worse than you when he first arrived, but it's better now." Jaiden sat back on the bed and looked around. It was like being in a tree house. It looked like a house built inside a huge tree. The blonde man smiled as Jaiden looked around "Why don't we eat until your friends get here." Jaiden frowned. “My friends?” she asked and got up from the bed.

When Foolish screamed again, the crows hit his head “Foolish! Be quiet!" When Cellbit whispered and shouted at Foolish, Foolish shouted in the same voice, “Dude! I'm entering the forbidden forest for the first time in my life! Everything is so scary and these fucking crows are making everything even more reactionary.” When one of the crows hit him again, Foolish shouted, "See!" Cellbit rolled his eyes and looked at Roier “Are you okay?” Roier shook his head. “I'm okay. You?" he muttered. Cellbit shook his head “My neck hurts a little, but I'm okay.” Roier looked at his neck, "Nothing is visible, don't worry." Cellbit smiled “Thank you.” He muttered and they continued to follow the crows “Do you think it's right for us to do this? We could at least tell Baghera and the others." Cellbit took a deep breath and said, “I don't know either. These crows can even take us to a bad place.” Foolish stuck his head between the two and whispered, "Then why are we following these?" Cellbit pushed Foolish's head "Because you told us to follow." Foolish stopped when he said, "Mate, if you listen to me when I tell you to do something, you're dumber than me." As Roier laughed, Cellbit stopped in his tracks and looked at Foolish "You're right." He said and tried to go back one of the crows hit him "But I think the crows really want us to follow them." Groaning in pain, Cellbit turned to Foolish "Oh Really?!" He shouted and started walking.

As Etoiles was leaving the facility, he looked at the crow that landed on his shoulder. While the crow was pointing him forward, Etoiles was looking at the viruses that were watching him in the woods. As his right arm started to ache, he grabbed the documents, threw them on the ground, and took out his sword "Bob, protect the children." Just as Walter Bob was about to leave, Osito stood in front of them and said, "I want an explanation." He looked like Cucurucho with his tough stance, but he could never be him “We are under attack, Mr. Osito.” Osito looked towards the forest and pulled out his gun. While Etoiles and Walter Bob looked at Osito in surprise, Osito said without emotion, “What are you waiting for? These men who killed my brother, you thought I wouldn't take revenge." At the sound of the gunshot, Etoiles laughed. “Well, Mr. Osito, I'm starting to like you.”

Cucurucho opened his eyes and lifted his head with the weight he felt in his stomach. When he saw Jaiden sleeping, he breathed a sigh of relief and looked at the ceiling, "Thank you." Phil shook his head as he whispered, “Don't thank me. If I had seen you as heartless as before, I would have killed you without blinking an eye." Cucurucho smiled while loving Jaiden's hair "This little girl changed me a lot." Phil smiled “I can see that, How are you feeling?" Cucurucho looked at Phil "I feel like I'm alive." When he mumbled, Phil shook his head and left the room with a smile. 

Cucurucho did not like children. Children were also afraid of him, but this little girl had always followed Cucurucho since she opened her eyes "Have you eaten your food?" Cucurucho rolled his eyes “Go back to your room, Jaiden.” Jaiden imitated him and rolled her eyes. “I asked have you eaten your food!” When she shouted, Cucurucho frowned and looked at her. Likewise, when Jaiden frowned at him, Cucurucho laughed unintentionally, “Huh? Did you just laugh? Cucurucho quickly returned to his former self “No.” When he said that, Jaiden started shouting “You just laughed! You laughed! Even though I couldn't tell from your mask, your body language showed that you were smiling!” Cucurucho quickly stood up and left the room.

While Cucurucho was reading his book on a quiet day, he saw Jaiden coming and quickly turned his head. He didn't want to deal with this little troublemaker. As he turned around, he saw the little girl in front of him and stopped "Are you running away from me?" Cucurucho closed his book “No.” Jaiden frowned when he said, "Foolish said you were avoiding me." When she said that, Cucurucho took a deep breath. He had forgotten there were two troublemakers “Where is Foolish?” Jaiden smiled “I won't say. He got angry at you." Cucurucho stopped “Is he upset?” Jaiden chuckled “Yes.” Jaiden stopped as Cucurucho gave his book to the employee standing next to him “I want to read a book too!” she shouted "Do you even know how to read?" Jaiden's cheeks turned red "Y-Yes!" Cucurucho laughed “Okay, then read this book and tell me when you finish it.” Cucurucho gave the book to Jaiden and walked to his office. Towards evening, when everyone was asleep, Cucurucho had just finished his work. Meanwhile, when there was a knock on the door, Jaiden had walked in. She was crying. She handed the book to Cucurucho “I lied. I don't know how to read. I am sorry." While Cucurucho was trying not to laugh, Jaiden continued to cry “Well I knew it.” When Jaiden started to cry even more, Cucurucho stopped. “Okay, well, stop crying and I'll teach you to read.” Jaiden stopped and sniffled “Really? Don't you hate me?” Cucurucho rolled his eyes “I hate all children, but today I can make a small exception.” Jaiden paused “Can Foolish come too?” Cucurucho started laughing when she asked, "Is he behind the door?" Jaiden shook her head sadly “Foolish, come in!” Foolish came in and started crying, "Why are you crying?" asked Cucurucho in surprise “Because Jaiden is crying!” Cucurucho took a deep breath. It was going to be a long night.

Chapter Text

As Jaiden fell asleep peacefully, she slowly opened her eyes as she felt the weight on her. Alex was looking at her "Alex I'm sleeping." She muttered and turned her back to Alex. The crow flapped its wings and did not let her sleep “What's the matter?” Alex jumped off the bed and waited for Jaiden to get out of bed. Jaiden got out of bed and looked at Alex "What's going on?" When Alex pointed to the door with his wings, Jaiden looked at the door “Alex, I'm still injured. Why don't we call the others?" Just as Jaiden was about to shout at Cucurucho, Alex shouted and looked at Jaiden before she could speak "Okay, calm down." The crow approached her leg and bit her “Agh! Hey!" When Alex flew out of the window next to the door, Jaiden silently left the room and began to follow Alex, who was leading her. It was dark, she could hear the sounds of grasshoppers and fireflies illuminating their path. The flowers shining in the moonlight looked magnificent. They stopped in front of a lake that glowed deep blue. Jaiden looked mesmerized when she saw the lake “This is amazing!” The crow landed on her shoulder and watched the lake “Is this real?” As Jaiden approached the lake in admiration, she felt someone push her from behind and she fell into the lake. All she saw were blurry green eyes. They were here.

Cucurucho opened his eyes and looked around. The crow was knocking on the window so fast that it was impossible not to wake up. When the crow saw him waking up, he quickly went to his owner, Phil, and put his head on his head to show him his foresight. Phil opened his eyes quickly and yelled, “Follow me!” When he raised his hand in the air, all the crows in the forest started shouting. It was like an alarm “What's going on?” Phil grabbed his gun as Tubbo spoke in his sleepy voice “Etoiles is wounded. They found us. Find Bagi. The children are about to come, take them and run to the Fedaration." Tina came running “Jaiden! Jaiden isn't in the room.” As Cucurucho quickly left them, he fell to the ground with the knife on his shoulder "Were you going somewhere?" Phil clenched his teeth at the face he saw, "Maximus." As Maximus smiled, the green virus rising from his leg to his eyes was glowing “Long time no see! Did you think you could hide in the forests? There is no more Etoiles.” Phil clenched his teeth and smiled. “Your biggest mistake is that you think we are weak. Guys now!”  Maximus shouted "Catch them now!" as Tina Tubbo and Mouse ran into the forest. While the children were lost in the woods, Fit attacked Maximus from behind and knocked him to the ground "I'm sorry, Maximus, but this is for killing my friend!" While Fit hit Maximus hard on the head with the broom in his hand, knocking him out, Phil lifted Cucurucho off the ground and said, "You're bleeding profusely." Cucurucho sat down again “Just promise me one thing, Phil.” Phil stopped and closed his eyes “Don't make me do this.” Cucurucho didn't listen when he whispered “Jaiden. Protect her at all costs. This is my last word to you." This knife had already paralyzed Cucurucho's entire body with pain before the wounds on his body had fully healed. He couldn't breathe anymore "Damn it." Phil whispered and stood up “Find me Jaiden!” As the crows showed him the way, he looked at Cucurucho one last time.

“I don't allow this! These experiments are harming children!” Cucurucho was not listening to him “Bagi is just a baby! She could have died! You're making a big mistake separating her twin from her! What do you mean by freezing the subjects?!” Phil fell to the ground with an electric shock to his neck “You talk too much. That's why I want children.” Phil tried to stand up but still hadn't fainted "What do you mean by freezing children?!" Cucurucho did not look at him. “You were divided into Experiment 1 and Experiment 2 groups. The rest will be the Experiment 1 group. If they are equipped, we will use them as test subjects after we are done with you.” As Phil was about to attack Cucurucho in anger, he was thrown back by a kick to his stomach, "Cut off his right wing." These were the words Phil heard before he fainted.

When he approached the lake, he saw the girl lying by the lake “Jaiden!” While Jaiden was coughing, Phil stopped with the boy standing over her “Wilbur?” Wilbur stopped and looked at him. His eyes were green “Oh! Hi dad!” The crows were all in the trees watching as Phil stood where he was “So you've learned to control them. I'm happy for you dad! So, did you tell everyone your secret? Do they know how you killed my brothers? How you killed me?” Phil gasped “That's not you,” Wilbur smiled as he whispered, “Things didn't go as planned, but I have a surprise for you. I brought them back to life.” Phil struggled to keep his balance when he saw people coming out from behind the tree from the left side “T-Techno T-Tom” Wilbur laughed “It's not that easy old man. Join us. Let's be happy like before." Phil turned his attention to the sound of the girl coughing. Alex was protecting her. He had to think fast “Wilbur, this is not you. We can heal you. If you want to be like before, come with me. I can fix you. This virus-“ Wilbur laughed “A virus? I'm alive because of what you call the virus. You left us behind. You said you'd be back in that treehouse. We waited for you for 2 years exactly! This virus may have killed us, but it kept us alive!” Phil shouted “You don't know! You know nothing! Federation-" Wilbur interrupted, “Yes, Federation. The federation that mentally destroys even the strongest you. You forgot us. We told you not to go!” Phil shouted, “They were killing children!” Wilbur shouted, “We were your children too! Even if we weren't your own child, we were your child! We trusted you! Even when Techno told you he hated heroes, you were the one who wanted to play hero! Now look at you! You are still watching children die!” Phil couldn't swallow as he looked at Jaiden “I made a promise. Give her to me!” Wilbur started laughing “Did you make that promise to the man who killed us? Pathetic.” Wilbur followed Phil's command as he kicked Jaiden back into the lake "Techno!" Jaiden was falling to the bottom when Techno grabbed Phil "Wilbur!" While Wilbur looked at Phil with blank eyes, Phil was screaming, “Please! Please Wilbur! Save her! There is a lot you don't know! Please!" While Wilbur was still looking at him, Tommy clenched his teeth and jumped into the lake “Tommy!” The crows began to attack Wilbur as Wilbur shouted angrily, "Get off me!" Techno let go Phil, when Tommy out with Jaiden "You owe us an explanation." Tommy backed away angrily as Phil looked at his son gratefully. Jaiden was crying as she vomited the water she swallowed “Everything is over.” Wilbur looked at him with hatred as Phil calmed Jaiden down “I survived all the torture I endured. To come back to you.” As Phil stood up, Jaiden tried to understand what was happening. When Phil placed his hand on Wilbur's forehead, Wilbur fainted. The same was true for his other two brother’s.

While Fit tying Maximus to the tree, he was trying to get information about Etoiles. "I won't tell even if I die." Maximus spat on the ground “Max why are you doing this! You avoided drinking the antidote! What's the problem?! Why?!" Maximus shouted, “Do you all think the Federation's experiments are over?! Haahah, all of you, continue to live in a pink world! The federation wants all of these! How do you think the Green Virus emerged?! They needed a reason to keep you here after you escaped! Because you had powers! You were the group that was successful in the experiments! You can never die! You can't grow! You are perfect! Don't you understand yet, Fit! This is part of their experiment-“ Maximus suddenly began to feel pain and black liquid began to flow from his eyes. As Fit retreated in horror, he saw the men watching from afar. The men quickly hid, but it was too late. Maximus was right. They never escaped. This was a big game prepared for them to return to the federation. They eliminated Cucurucho and killed anyone who did not obey and now they told the kids run to the federation.

Cellbit shouted “How can we walk without crows! They are all lost and how many days have we been standing in this forest? 2 days? Where are they?!” Cellbit looked towards the fire "We are trapped!" Roier took his hand and said, “Calm down, Cellbit. I'm sure there's nothing wrong." While Cellbit looked at Roier, Foolish held Cellbit's hand and imitated Roier "Yes, Cellbit Roier is right. Calm down." The two looked at Foolish with blank eyes “What?” Cellbit took his hand off Foolish “Rude.” Foolish rolled his eyes and looked at the trees “Did you hear that?” Cellbit looked at him “I'm not in the mood to deal with jokes, Foolish. I don't hear anything.” Roier stood up and pulled out his gun “No, Foolish is not kidding. Someone running here." When Roier hid the Cellbit behind his back, Foolish pretended to vomit “There you are!” They stopped with the 4 children they saw "Who are you-" Cellbit quickly stepped in front of Roier "You!" He shouted and started attacking Bagi “Hey! Hey!" Bagi looked at him angrily as they pulled the Cellbit back "What's your problem?!" Cellbit shouted at her "Everything happened because of you!" Bagi frowned “Because of me?! Don't be a child! I warned you about those creatures! I snuck into the facility and made sure you found my missing poster! I was trying to help you from the very beginning!” Cellbit shouted at her "I made the biggest mistake in asking for your help! You're useless!” As Bagi's eyes filled with tears she shouted "You know nothing!" Tubbo stopped them and said, "We have to go back to the facility! We were attacked! Cucurucho is dead!” Roier lowered his gun “Was Cucurucho alive?! What about Jaiden?!” Tina shook her head "We need to escape, you remember the way, right?" Roier shouted “Jaiden! I asked if she was alive!” Mouse replied in the same tone, “We don't know! If you don't want to die now, start running! They are coming!”

Notes:

A little sbi family drama

Chapter Text

Jaiden, out of breath, looked at the shining lake and then at the children falling to the ground. She started to feel cold with the cold wind blowing through the trees and she turned to Phil. It was the first time she saw the man from behind. When she looked carefully at his scattered wings, she noticed that his right wing was missing and his hands were shaking. Phil took a deep breath and turned to Jaiden. When Jaiden looked into the man's eyes, she saw tears and decided to remain silent "I can't leave them here." Phil whispered and raised his hand in the air. The crows all flew into the air and went to find the others. Phil slowly sat down on the ground, placed the three boys' heads on his leg, and looked at Jaiden. "I'm sorry on their behalf." While Jaiden was shivering, Alex was struggling to fly with a small blanket in his mouth. Her heart was hurting “Cucurucho.” Phil couldn't look at her as she said, "Where is he?" Phil didn't answer "He'll meet us later." Jaiden realized it was a lie, but she was still too young to learn to pin her hopes on a lie. So she chose to believe that Cucurucho would meet them later, even though she knew it was a lie. When Fit came to Phil listening to the crows, he said "Fuck!" Phil smiled tiredly. “I wouldn't mind a little help.” When he mumbled, Fit shook his head. “Of course, my friend, but I have something to tell you first.” Phil looked at him and started listening. Meanwhile, Jaiden was talking to Alex "Can you take me to Cucurucho?" The crow looked at her with concern when she whispered, "Please?" Jaiden was ready to beg the crow. She wanted to escape from this chaos. Cucurucho would always help her escape from that chaos. As the crow began to fly, Jaiden looked at Fit and Phil one last time. Phil was frowning and Fit looked very worried. When Alex returned, Jaiden stood up and began to follow him. A few crows noticed they were gone and started screaming, but Phil was too busy to hear them “It's like the old times, but this time we need a plan to save everyone.” Fit said and Phil agreed “But before that, we have to get Etoiles out of there.” Fit laughed, “Don't you know? That beast has already escaped from there. He's coming here." Phil smiled and tried to look at Jaiden, but Jaiden was gone “Fit. Where is the girl?" Fit stared off into space and looked back at Phil "Uh Oh..."

As Jaiden walked in the cold air, shivering, they reached the place where the tree houses were "This is the house where Cucurucho is staying-" she fell silent when she saw the man lying on the ground. His long white hair now looked red. The red lake that formed on the ground stained all of his clothes. Jaiden walked slowly towards him and sat down on the floor “Cucurucho. Would you please wake up?" she whispered. She was starting to get out of breath “I'm sorry for being troublemaker. I promise I won't do it again. I won't fight with Foolish or I would do anything you say. If you say go away I will go. I promise! Please wake up.” Cucurucho still did not answer. Jaiden pulled her legs closer, wrapped her arms around them, buried her head, and then started crying loudly, "I'm sorry!" She was shouting, but Cucurucho still did not answer. When Jaiden looked up, she noticed Cucurucho's broken mask was still on his face. She slowly approached the body, took the mask and put it on her own face “It suits you.” Jaiden turned around, sniffling “Who are you?” The boy who was her age was smiling when she asked. The beanie he wore matched his blue shirt and black overalls “I came from the Federation. It's time to go home, Jaiden. You caused a lot of problem and it resulted in the death of our best employee. My name is ElQuackity but my friends call me Quackity. Let's go now, Jaiden. Everyone is waiting for us.” ElQuackity extended his black-gloved hand to Jaiden and Jaiden asked before taking his hand "Can this mask be mine now?" ElQuackity smiled “Of course, but before that you have to never leave my side. Because everything happened because of you. Think of this as your punishment. You will not talk to anyone except me and some federation employees." Jaiden nodded and took ElQuackity's hand "You can keep the mask." Jaiden touched her mask with her free hand and looked at Cucurucho lying on the ground one last time. While Alex was watching them from a distance, he suddenly started screaming as the cage closed on him. Jaiden stopped when he heard Alex's voice, but ElQuackity didn't stop "You don't have time to worry about things like that anymore, Jaiden." When he said Jaiden had to follow him because ElQuackity wouldn't let go of her hand "But-" ElQuackity stopped "But do you want him to die too? Everyone around you is dying, Blue Bird.” Jaiden held her breath at the name and felt as if Cucurucho had spoken ElQuackity's words. So they continued walking through the dark forest and she saw a car. 

Fit stopped when Phil's blue eyes sparkled "That's not a good sign. What happened?" When Phil returned to normal he looked at Fit "One of my crows died." He muttered and they looked into the dark forest “Do you think that-” Phil interrupted Fit. “Probably, but you have to understand me, Fit. I can't leave them again." Fit looked at the three children lying on the ground "Etoiles is probably bringing the antidote." He mumbled and walked away from Phil. In one day, they lost all the children again, but this one day, Phil regained his own children.

Cellbit had returned quicker than he expected. He looked at the duo waiting for them "Osito and Walter Bob!" Roier approached Cellbit as he waved at them, “Something seems wrong. Don't look like you're going to kill them, and just keep up with the role. Look to the right.” When Cellbit looked at the windows, he made eye contact with Baghera. Baghera shook her head negatively and put her hand on the glass and pointed to the forest “Guys, I was so worried about you!” While Walter Bob looked at the children with concern, Bagi stepped in front of Cellbit and tried to protect him. While everyone was surprised by this, Osito and Walter looked at each other and Bagi turned to Tina Mouse and Tubbo “You must be from the old days. Did you survive using your powers?” With Osito's question, the children looked at each other. Meanwhile, Walter was listening to Osito carefully while giving medicine to Cellbit Roier and Foolish "No, we are not allowed to use our powers except Phil." said Tubbo and took a step back "Where is Etoiles?" Osito just smiled “You must be tired. Jaiden is about to come too.” Foolish looked excitedly “Jaiden? Where?" Everyone looked there with a small car headlight illuminating the dark garden “And they came too!” ElQuackity got off first while Walter hurried there. Then Jaiden got off but she looked different “Oh.” Osito didn't expect to see his brother mask "What happened to her?" muttered Tina "JAIDEN!"  As Foolish was about to run towards her, Roier held him back "Wait." He said and they looked at Jaiden who was holding ElQuackity's hand "What is she doing?" asked Mouse “Something is different.” Osito smiled as the children questioned “Go back to your rooms, you must be very tired. Walter, please escort them to their rooms!” Foolish waited for Jaiden to look at him, but she wasn't looking at him “Roier, let me go.” Foolish pushed Roier's hand away and started to run towards Jaiden, but Walter Bob stopped him “Jaiden!” I know Cucurucho is dead! Nothing is your fault! Don't blame youself! Look at me!” Even though he screamed with all his might, Jaiden wouldn't look at him. ElQuackity looked at Foolish and laughed, then said something to Jaiden, but Jaiden shook her head and they continued walking. This was the end point for Foolish. He walked towards Roier and Walter Bob shouted after him, “Foolish! You are trying in vain!” Foolish took Roiers gun “I'll keep this. Trust me." he whispered and hid the gun and ran inside. Foolish might act like he didn't care about anything, but he had his limits, and those limits were no longer needed after Cucurucho died and Jaiden ignored him. There was no one to protect the Federation from itself anymore.

Chapter Text

While ElQuackity and Jaiden were in the car, Jaiden asked “Foolish. Can I talk to him? It would be better if he knew I was good." ElQuackity looked at her “Jaiden this is forbidden. I told you. We lost our best man because of you. The problem you've created this time is too big to cover up, and this time there's no one standing behind you. If you don't want the Foolish kid to get hurt, don't look at anyone. Don't talk to anyone. Without me." Jaiden fell silent and looked out the window then back at him “I thought you and I were the same age. How are you at such a high level? I've never seen you before." ElQuackity did not answer. Jaiden frowned, while the mask covered her right face, her left face showed all her emotions "If I can only talk to you, you should also talk to me." ElQuackity looked at her when she said “I was raised inside the facility, separate from you and the others. Cucurucho was the one who forbade me from going out, so I never got to see the outside world. Until he dies. Now I don't know who will lead us." Jaiden continued to look at ElQuackity "So why wouldn't Cucurucho let you leave the facility?" With this question ElQuackity started laughing "Long story. Do you really want to listen?” Jaiden shook her head "I killed my twin brother." ElQuackity was no longer smiling, he was watching the road with empty eyes. He was sure Jaiden would be afraid of him, but the little girl said something that surprised him “And why? Did he make you angry? Were you trying to save him? Did you love him or hate him? Why did you kill him?" ElQuackity looked at the girl in surprise “I-I-” he took a deep breath and closed his eyes then looked at the road “I understand why Cucurucho has changed. I don't know if you're too good or too stupid. We are here. Take my hand." When ElQuackity got out of the car, he heard Foolish shout as Jaiden also got out of the car, "JAIDEN!" Jaiden quickly grabbed ElQuackity's hand and clenched her teeth. She was using all her strength not to look at him. She didn't want to cry "Jaiden! I know Cucurucho is dead! Nothing is your fault! Don't blame yourself! Look at me!” Jaiden held her breath and was about to turn to him when ElQuackity held her hand tightly. Jaiden looked at ElQuackity, she saw ElQuackity laughing at Foolish and looked at Jaiden “Do you want to talk to him? But if you do this, Foolish may get hurt. They are watching us.” Jaiden nodded quickly and they started walking without looking at them. Jaiden did not let go of ElQuackity's hand as they entered the building "What will happen now? Foolish is smarter than you thinks.” ElQuackity sneered “Are you saying I should be afraid of him?” When he said that, Jaiden shook her head. “I'm not saying. I'm warning you. Roier, Cellbit, Baghera and Foolish may be smarter and more dangerous than you think. If you're going to make a game out of me, you shouldn't underestimate them." Jaiden let go of ElQuackity's hand and adjusted her mask, walked over to the guards waiting for her and smiled "Hello! Where is my room?" ElQuackity felt that something was wrong because the girl he saw in this forest and the girl now were very different. When the sky rumbled, he looked at his watch, he was sure that it wouldn't rain today, but he didn't understand why there was thunder.

Foolish entered his room and activated the lock system he created. When his door was locked, he quickly pulled out the map from under his bed. It was the map Cucurucho prepared for him and Jaiden. He threw the medicine that Waltet Bob had put in his mouth next to the other medicines he had spit out, and after making himself vomit, he brushed his teeth and began to examine the map.

“Cucurucho, did you call me?” When he entered the room, he saw Cucurucho was nervous “Foolish. Listen to me. If anything happens to me-" He sat down at the table and took out the map "Take this map and save all the children here. If you can't, take Jaiden and run. This is a fake forest. You can make your way out with this map.” Foolish didn't understand what was going on “Cucurucho, is something going to happen to you? If you die, Jaiden will-“ Cucurucho interrupted, “I know that's why you should stay with her. You must not let the Federation get close to her. Foolish, you're smarter than you think, but you're still a kid. I know you don't take the medicine. I can see this, but if this is noticed you could be in trouble. You must never forget what I am about to tell you now.” Foolish began to listen carefully to Cucurucho “This is not a game, so what I have to say is very serious. There are things in the medicines you take that will reveal the power within you. You are not normal kids. Your current age should be 24, but you are Group 2, meaning your body was frozen and you were in ice for 12 years. Foolish you have to find the first group if you find them it will be easier because they know everything and the federation wants me to bring them back here because they were successful. They're stronger than you think. They can save the world. Great immortal child soldiers.” Foolish gulped “Saving the world? What is the world's problem?" Cucurucho took a deep breath “The world is on the verge of extinction because of a mistake we made. There are plenty of nameless monsters out there. Do you remember that book I gave you? The zombie one. Imagine the world is such a place. And you are children brought to destroy them." Foolish tried to understand “This is bullshit! If you are so powerful, why do you use children? Why can't you destroy it yourself?” Cucurucho shook his head “We used to be a big company. We used to do a lot of experiments with the support we received from the government. There is no government anymore, Foolish. We can do whatever we want because we are stronger than the government and we have our say. TheHost. The man who rules us. He's dangerous. The current situation amuses it. But after the 2nd Experiments are over, they will send you to the real world.” Foolish's heart quickened. "Why? What can we do?” he asked "Power? That's a ridiculous excuse, Cucurucho." Cucurucho nodded “I know. We have very high hopes for you. The Green Virus was something the Federation developed. It was to measure how long the first experimental group would live, but this virus got out of control. Foolish, whatever you do, get your friends out of here. Especially Jaiden. Find the first group and escape to the outside world. No one can find you in the outside world."

Foolish took a deep breath and pulled out the gun. He opened his window and aimed towards the light illuminating the darkness ahead. The garden was plunged into darkness as the moon slowly gave way to the sun. As the gunshot echoed around, Foolish aimed at the alarm and shot it. As the alarm started going off, he aimed at the lamppost and took a deep breath, "Please." He whispered and hit the electric pole. The guards were taking the children out as the alarm continued to blare while the power in the building was cut off. Foolish quickly started pouring the oil he bought from Cucurucho on the floor. He took the map and opened his door and started pouring the oil all over the corridor “Foolish!” Walter looked at him "What are you doing? We have to go out!” Foolish threw down the bottle in his hand and smiled. With the fire in his hand, Walter Bob opened his eyes and shouted, "You-" Foolish touched the ground and the corridor started to catch fire "Foolish!" Foolish quickly ran downstairs and saw Cellbit and Roier "Are you two still together?!" He grabbed the two of them and pulled them aside and they hid “Foolish, what are you doing?!” Foolish silenced him as Cellbit shouted “I'm doing what I should have done in the first place! We're getting out of here."

As Tubbo and the others were about to escape from the back building again, they stopped at the sound of an alarm. Mouse looked around and smiled "Are these-" Tina looked around “Hey!” she whispered and the cat passing by looked at them "What's going on?" While the cat was talking to Tina, Tubbo the Mouse and Bagi were waiting for her. “Oh Foolish?” As the cat continued to explain, Bagi shouted, “What? Tina we can't understand animals?” Tina turned to them “Oh yeah! sorry! Foolish Cellbit and Roier are outside starting a riot.” Mouse smiled “Oh. We must help them.” When Mouse put her hands on the ground, Tina hugged Bagi with the dead people coming out from under the ground "I don't like these things." When she mumbled, Bagi laughed, "Don't worry, Tina, I'm here." While Tubbo and Mouse were vomiting, Bagi looked at Tubbo "Are you going to do anything?" Tubbo smiled at the electricity generated when he clapped his hands together “I'll send word to Phil.” Bagi smiled as Tubbo disappeared into the forest "It's time to help my brother." She took Tina's hand and the two of them went to the Foolish's together.

Jaiden was looking at the mask in her hand as she listened to everything that happened from her new room. She knew this would happen. Foolish would do this when he got angry. She knew they were weird kids from the very beginning. Cucurucho would hide everything from her, but he would always leave a hint, “I'm sorry we're a little late. If your last wish is to save these children, don't worry," she muttered into the mask "Foolish will take care of everything and I will wait for the right time.” Thunder rumbled as Jaiden's eyes glowed purple.

“I'm afraid of lightning.” Cucurucho frowned “Lightning? Where did this come from, Blue Bird?" While Jaiden was about to answer, she screamed at the noise heard from inside and hid behind Cucurucho "I was having a nightmare and suddenly this voice woke me up!" Lightning struck again as Jaiden screamed in fear, “This is impossible, the weather should have been sunny today." Cucurucho turned to Jaiden in horror “Jaiden, are you doing this?” Jaiden looked at him crying “What am I doing! How can I do this silly?!” Cucurucho quickly took Jaiden in his arms and ran towards the laboratory "Cucurucho, what's going on?" As Jaiden's fear turned into surprise, she forgot the sound of lightning and looked at Cucurucho with curiosity. Cucurucho laid her on the stretcher “Do you trust me?” When he asked, Jaiden stopped and said, “No.” When she mumbled, Cucurucho rolled his eyes and started asking questions "Since when haven't you taken the medicine given by Walter Bob?" Jaiden stopped “How did you know?! Did Foolish say it?!” Cucurucho shouted “Foolish?! Doesn't he take the medicine too?!” Jaiden was surprised “No! He take his medicine...” When she looked away, Cucurucho shouted, "You two troublemakers!" Jaiden screamed as the needle entered her arm while looking at Cucurucho running around "Hey!" Cucurucho looked at "I'm sorry." He saw Jaiden's eyes as he muttered "Jaiden." He stopped and looked into her eyes with concern “Since when have your eyes been this color?” Jaiden looked into her eyes “Oh! I don't know! Since this morning I guess! Nobody noticed! Foolish's eyes turned green too!” Cucurucho was looking at her with concern “Stay here until this medicine is finished, okay? I'm going to get Foolish and DO NOT TOUCH ANYTHING. Okay?" Jaiden began to wait with curiosity as he kissed Jaiden's hair and quickly left the laboratory.

Chapter 10: THE END

Chapter Text

Cucurucho was looking at the notebook in front of him. He was nervous. He raised his head and looked at the two children sleeping on the stretcher. He didn't want them to suffer the same fate. He looked at the notebook again and took a deep breath.

List prepared for the first group

Phil - He's smarter than we thought. He is a great leader who can use his powers with his intelligence, even if his power is unnecessary.

Mouse - Even though she is small, she can raise a zombie army by awakening the dead. A successful attack.

Tina - She can talk to animals. Great for information but unnecessary. Unsuccessful

Tubbo - He can create electrical power from nothing. It can convert the power in the air into electricity. Successful

Bagi - Failed. She can survive with her intelligence.

Fit - Speed. Thanks to his speed, he can reach anywhere.
Successful.

Etoiles - A great power. Invincible. Successful

Maximus – Failed/Runaway

Aypierre – Failed/Runaway

Pol - Failed / Fugitive

Carre - Whereabouts unknown

Mariana – The Fugitive

Cucurucho picked up his pen and added the names of two more people to his notes.

Jaiden - Can control the weather. Successful

Foolish - I thought he controlled Fire, but I was wrong. He can control all elements. His blood color is golden. Successful

He read what he had written over and over again. Then he tore off the paper and threw it into the burning fire. He was supposed to report them, but no he wasn't going to do that. He couldn't. He couldn't kill them. Monsters weren't the things to be afraid of. These were children. They were protecting people from these children. Everything he told them was a lie. These were the drugs they took to suppress their powers. Not to get stronger. They had failed to kill the first group so they made a virus, but he couldn't tell them that. He had to make a plan. He had to find a lie to convince them and make them escape. He don't care anybody. Except for Jaiden and Foolish. If those two ran away, it would be impossible to find them. He had to tell a big lie and make them escape. He knew Jaiden wouldn't leave him, so he had to prepare for his own end.

When it started raining Tubbo stopped and looked around "What is this?" As he frowned, he saw Phil "Phil!" Phil looked at him "Tubbo!" Tubbo didn't expect Phil to be injured. All his crows were dead “I'm trapped! They are not real!” When Tubbo looked where he was pointing, he saw Wilbur, whose face was melting "What the fuck?!" Phil ran towards him “Let's get out of here!" As the two began to run, Tubbo looked at those chasing them “What is this?! Robot? Phil, I think I'm going to throw up!” Phil's blue eyes were shining with anger. “I don't know, I'm such an idiot! Fuck! I ruin everything! This is not the fucking plan! But they're going to pay for using my family.” Tubbo gulped “What are you talking about?! What plan! Our strength... We used them.” Phil nodded “Great. "It's time for us to get out of here." Tubbo followed Phil, confused.

“Why should I believe you?” Phil was looking at Cucurucho with hatred “You don't have to believe it, but you have to. There are traitors inside. They will kill children. Jaiden was the one they chose, and I can't let her die." Phil frowned “Why is this kid so important to you?” Cucurucho took off his mask when he asked, "Are you going to help me or should I report the little nest you're hiding in?" Phil clenched his teeth and crows began to fly "Etoiles, what do you say?" The man playing with his knife laughed carelessly “I wouldn't mind a little game. The plan he describes is great for confusing everyone.” Phil looked at him “You're going to get hurt, man.” Etoiles raised his eyebrows when he said, “If I look weak, they will think they have won. We want this too. Children don't need to know the truth. They'll think I'm running away, but I'll hide there. If the children start to rebel as he said, I will start killing those bastards inside." Cucurucho shook his head "Don't worry, Jaiden doesn't know what her power is yet. It won't take long for her to understand, but I can use it. It will be difficult to get here, but we will get there somehow."

Walter Bob emerged from the fire and struggled to breathe. He could hear the children's voices "Foolish!" He shouted with all his might, but no one heard his voice "Oh, so you were here." Walter Bob turned around when he heard the voice "Etoiles! I thought you ran away," he said with fear "That was the incident," Etoiles said and laughed with his French accent “Welcome to the last act of our play. This is for shooting me.” Walter Bob was thrown back by a sword blow to his stomach.

"They all died." Osito raised an eyebrow. Etoiles smiled in victory. Osito turned his gun on Etoiles "Except for one person." Etoiles' smile faded. "What does this mean? I thought we were on the same side.” Etoiles, who was thrown forward by the bullet that hit his shoulder, looked back. Walter Bob had shot him “I'm sorry, my old friend. Those are the rules.” Etoiles was laughing as he fainted forward.

When he woke up, he saw that he was in a cell. They tied him up, but it wasn't strong enough to stop Etoiles. Everything was going according to plan. He called the guard and said, "Can you give me some water? Are you acting like this because I'm French?" The guard rolled his eyes and as he approached the bars, Etoiles pulled him and hit guard head hard on the bars. While the guard was fainting, he took the key from his pocket and opened the door. While he was looking at the cameras and smiling, the alarm started ringing and he started to run away. At least that's what everyone thought. Etoiles had never escaped.

Jaiden put on her mask and walked out of the room. Her eyes were purple and her head ached. When the lightning struck, she trembled with fear but tried to come to her senses “This is my power.” She whispered. When she reached the exit door, she narrowed her eyes. The fire illuminated the dark garden and the building opposite was on fire. She met ElQuackity's eyes "You knew that." murmured ElQuackity and looked into the girl's eyes “I didn't know. I guessed." said Jaiden and looked at Foolish. “The monster called Etoiles killed Mr Duck. Osito and Walter Bob are missing. They probably died too." Jaiden nodded “Let me tell you this.” Jaiden looked at ElQuackity "I have the power to kill you right here, but I won't." ElQuackity's eyes turned black. “But remember this. In the outside world, normal people fear and hate things they don't know. Fear can be the end of a world. The weak can ask for power. Goverment may want to destroy you. The greatest harm done to you and your frineds was to describe the outside world as dead. The outside world is not dead, Jaiden. The goverment is there. People are there and when you see the real world you will want to die. When the day comes, I will come for you." As ElQuackity vanished into the shadows, Foolish's voice was heard "JAIDEN! we did it!” As Foolish ran to Jaiden and hugged her, Jaiden saw him. As the sky grew brighter and the sun was now fully risen, Cucurucho was watching from behind the trees.

1YEAR LATER 

“BREAKING NEWS

The monsters have escaped! I repeat, the monsters have escaped! They people like us! They look like us, but they have powers! Harmful scary powers! The goverment was protecting us from them, but now they have escaped! Watch out on the streets because they are out there!”

“Cucurucho told me this place would be scary. He said there would be monsters. Scary monsters. He told me people need us.” Foolish adjusted his scarf and glasses “But he didn't say the monsters were humans.” They were looking at the protests. Phil took them by the hand "We should go, it won't take long for them to find us." As the police sirens grew louder, Cellbit spoke angrily “They killed one of us! How can they do this!” Etoiles silenced Cellbit “Hush little warrior. They can hear you. We will take revenge for this. If they want war, we will give them a war. Our enemy is no longer the Federation. People." Jaiden looked at Baghera's body and listened to the people "Take them back to where they came from!" Jaiden looked at the people with hatred. In a world where everything taught is a lie, she ned to be stay alive. It's not a game anymore. It's time to kill or be killed. When the air rumbled, Phil quickly pushed them away and they went to the house where they were hiding. Now it was not only the Federation they had to escape from, but also people. Cucurucho had only told her one truth "They won't find you there." But now this too was turning into a lie. Because someone found them.

The main purpose of the Federation.

A long time ago, a wave of radiation spread throughout the world, and all children born at that time were affected by this radiation. A group calling themselves the federation gathered the babies and locked themselves in a building with a few affected people. With the help of the State, they grew stronger and established a large Lab. All the experiments carried out on children began to give strange results. The Federation thought they would turn into monsters and created a fake life for them. They prepared a medicine to suppress the powers of children whose powers were revealed when they were babies. They lied about how scary it was outside so normal people wouldn't be bored. In this way, his experiments would continue. They would create viruses, test them on children, and then make medicines for these viruses. Their intentions were bad, but no one cared. After all, no one was getting hurt in this job. The green virus was given to the first group that escaped from their hands, but one of them had overcome this green virus. Etoiles. They were excited. They removed the second group from the ice and started experiments on them as well. But the man in charge of the experiments became attached to one of the children. He started telling lies. He realized that he wanted to save them. He wasn't the only one who noticed this. so he made the federation look bad so they could escape. Then he reached out to the first group and asked for help. He made himself look dead without anyone knowing. Now he has turned into a machine with his emotions taken away from him. ElQuackity was looking at him with a smile, "You will pay for everything you did to me and my brother with the death of your loved ones. Those children will die slowly and you will watch. But before that, you will watch what chaos will occur in this city where fear rules. This is your work. You should have killed us long ago."
